"Just Like You" lyrics

Just like you
Ooh, I used to wanna be just like you, yeah
Just like you
Just like you

As time passes, people change
Even when they stay the same
I could only see, only see the good, yeah
Not the whole picture like I should

That's not to say I don't admire you
But now I realize you're only human too
It's not about the blame
It's time to break the chain

I used to wanna be just like you
Say the things you say
Do the things you do
Each and every day
I used to wanna be just like you
In every way
So impressed by you
That was another day
Just like you

When I was with you so many years ago
Seemed like there was nothing that you didn't know
What you told me then, it was the gospel truth
That was before I ever needed proof

That's not to say you didn't show me a lot
But now I realize that you've got to be taught
It's not about the blame
It's time to break the chain

I used to wanna be just like you
Say the things you say
Do the things you do
Each and every day
I used to wanna be just like you
In every way
So impressed by you
That was another day
Just like you

Oh, father
I'm not blaming you
Whoa
I'm not blaming you

Oh, that's not to say that you were never right
But now I've come to see things in a whole new light
It's not about the blame
It's time to break the chain

I used to wanna be just like you
Say the things you say
Do the things you do
Each and every day
I used to wanna be just like you
Oh, in every way
So impressed by you
That was another day

Oh, I used to wanna be just like you
Say the things you say (I used to wanna be like you)
Do the things you do, hmm
I used to wanna be just like you (oh, I used to wanna be like you)
In every way
So impressed by you

I used to wanna be just like you (oh)
I ain't blaming you (I used to wanna be just like you)
Father, father, father (I used to wanna be just like you)
Oh, I love you (I used to wanna be just like you)

I love you, father (I used to wanna be just like you)
(I used to wanna be just like you)
Oh, I used to wanna be like you
(I used to wanna be just like you)
Oh, and I'm still loving you, daddy
